Last week, Sprint announced a press event between HTC and Sprint to reveal a new device. The event is scheduled to start shortly. Many sources claim its the new HTC Evo One (Based off of the HTC One X with some exclusive features). I cant wait to pre-order this beast.

Yep, I'm getting the AT&T version of the same phone. Looks godly. They say HTC Sense 4 is a major improvement on what the Sense UI used to be.

The Galaxy S3 Rumors allow it to be a contender, but I would go with HTC over Samsung for the reasons we discussed yesterday about Openness

When it comes to openness, nothing can beat Motorola and there locked bootloader features. But that has not stopped me from buying and modding their devices (my Milestone and Razr)

The new EVO 4G LTE for sprint looks pretty cool. The design is a bit too much for me, but some people will surely love it as it is a throw back to the original EVO 4G. I can't deny the camera functions look AMAZING.

I prefer Samsung's subdued looks and generally amazing specs in the Galaxy S line. I use my GS2 more than my Nexus, and I am eagerly anticipating the release date of the GS3! It will surely be the cream of the crop yet again. I hope the 16MP camera with 60fps HD video recording is true, as well as the latest Exynos/Mali combo. My GS2 is still better than 99.9% of android phones out right now (IMHO), so Samsung better really set a new benchmark with the GS3. The latest leaked pic looks interesting if it's real, and the specs rumors sound insane!

Also the Samsung dev community has EXPLODED. There is a lot of GS2 dev work out there even though there are a ton of variants. Quite enjoying the latest ICS leak right now on my E4GT.

Actually going forward, I will refuse to do any further business with companies who play the patent troll game
